Description

Come and join Apple’s growing wireless silicon development team. Our wireless SoC organization is responsible for all aspects of wireless silicon development, emphasizing highly energy-efficient design and new technologies that transform the user experience at the product level. All of this is driven by a world-class vertically integrated engineering team spanning RF/Analog architecture and design, Systems/PHY/MAC architecture and design, VLSI/RTL design and integration, Emulation, Design Verification, Test and Validation, and FW/SW engineering. If you enjoy a fast-paced and challenging environment, collaborate with people across different functional areas, and thrive during crisis times, we encourage you to apply. DESCRIPTION As a Front End and Timing Analysis Engineer, you will be involved with all phases of implementing high performance, low power wireless SoCs from RTL to delivery of our final GDSII. Your responsibilities include, but are not limited to: • Generate chip or block level static timing constraints. • Synthesize design with UPF/DFT/BIST. • Close timing on critical blocks by working with design and PD teams. • Perform timing optimization and implement the design for functionality. • Generate and implement functional ECOs. • Run static timing analysis flows at chip/block level and provide guidelines to fix violations to other designers. • Participate in establishing/improving CAD and design flow methodologies. • Work with multi-disciplinary groups to make sure designs are delivered on time and with the highest quality by incorporating proper checks at every stage of the design process. MINIMUM QUALIFICATIONS Bachelors and 3+ years of relevant industry experience. Knowledge of the ASIC design flow, synthesis, static timing analysis, RTL to Post Synthesis netlist. Exposure to industry standard Timing, Logic Equivalence, Physical Design and Synthesis tools. Proficient in scripting in TCL, Perl or Python. PREFERRED QUALIFICATIONS Hands-on experience in timing/SDC constraints generation, analysis, and management. Knowledge of timing corners, operating conditions, process variations, and signal integrity-related issues. Understanding of UPF and low-power design and implementation techniques. Knowledge of basic SoC Architecture and HDL languages like Verilog to collaborate with our logic design team for timing fixes and functional ECOs.

Responsibilities

As a Front End and Timing Analysis Engineer, you will implement high performance, low power wireless SoCs from RTL to GDSII. Responsibilities include generating static timing constraints, synthesizing designs, and performing timing optimization.
